***UPDATE 2***

Dealer called me, inspection is complete. She is good a new!

In regards to the the censor, the whole light panel has to be replaced because of a bad sensor. And i was told that this item is on "NATIONAL BACKORDER". Seems that this is a hot item and everyone has a bad driver side sensor. So for those with the Anti-Theft, I'd check out your driver side motion sensor to see if it works!

The trunk panel was fixed.

Anyways, just thought I'd give everyone an update of the pony and let them know about the driver side motion sensor that seems to be a fix and is on National Back Order.
Well I have to say just about everything I have had to have has been on backorder. I was rearended in July, and had to have a rear inner panel replaced...national backorder! Some rails...national backorder! I just got lucky that my dealer found the parts at a Florida dealer.

I also had to have a wheel replaced and that took a lil more than a month. I just went to Discount Tire and they told me if I had to have my tires replaced soon...yup backordered! And man, these OEM tires are expensive.

Enough rant, its just my car has been on backorder more than I have had it. Thanks for the info, will have to check my motion sensors.

No no no, $100 total for the entire service. I think its like $20 for the filter and probably an hour and a half to remove the cabin filter. It doesn't cost $100 to do just the cabin service. $100 total to my service for everything including if I had to have it changed, but it didn't need to be changed. so it came out to $45.

Ahhh - gotcha Mav!

I wonder if "KEVIN" has a deal on these Cabin Filters?

I also wonder what the replacement procedure is?

KC, you out there watching?

I know replacing the cabin filters in a Honda Accord is a real pain, but they should last 30k according to Honda, unless you drive in real dusty conditions. I hope the Mustang has better access to the filter(s).

Both sensors? Remeber, there are two, one on the driver side and one on the passenger side. If you set off one on one side, doesn't mean the other side works.

Both my sensors work fine.



Why did you "have to" flash it back to stock? They can't do a scheduled maintenance on the car with a tune on it?
